Transfersby fee

Results are every finished match in our archive that fell on this calendar date; each year shows the highest-scoring ones first and says how many it is not listing. Transfers are those already completed, ordered by fee. Debuts are not here: we do not store a first appearance per player, and a debut derived from the competitions we carry would read like a fact while being a guess.
